ORTOVOX Sportartikel GmbH

ORTOVOX Sportartikel GmbH develops mountain sports equipment centered on protection and comfort in alpine environments. Its portfolio combines merino mountainwear, insulation apparel using Swisswool, technical backpacks, and emergency equipment for ski touring, freeriding, climbing, mountaineering, and high alpine travel. Apparel spans base, mid, and outer layers, including waterproof, windproof, breathable, and lightweight garments for women and men. The company also supplies packs for climbing, biking, alpine tours, and winter sports, with features such as equipment attachment systems, emergency compartments, and integrated emergency cards.

Mountain safety has been central to the business since 1980. Its avalanche equipment includes transceivers, shovels, probes, bivy equipment, and first aid kits, while electronic avalanche backpacks use the LiTRIC airbag system. Natural fibers remain a defining material focus, with merino wool used across garments, accessories, and backpack systems for climate regulation. The company states that its products are manufactured without PFAs and frames its material development around responsibility toward people and the mountain environment. Alongside equipment, it runs practical training through its Safety Academy, including mountaineering, climbing, first aid, and mountain biking courses led by mountain guides.
